Shutterbugs
Back in the day when the camera was new
people were thrilled with what they could do
To take a moment in time and save it forever
A completely marvelous thing to do –however
What moment in time should one chose to save
how many moments in time can one truly crave
some would save every moment if they could
if it didn’t cost so much or take all day they would
can’t save them all you can only save some
now the question of course is save which one
should it be- tell the truth
this one? the girl in big yellow hat.
or this one? with the fat crazy cat.
under compulsion you just never know
no big deal though it’s all just for show
